Not very long ago I saw a piece in an internet news source, where some, so called, moderate Republicans were interviewed. I found this to be somewhat comical, since they claimed that this was a return to the original Republican Party norm. It still makes me chuckle just a bit when I think about that.

My paternal grandfather was born in 1861 and was a lifelong Republican. My father was a Republican, and I am a Republican. From childhood I knew that Republicans were not moderate in what they believed and practiced.
